Stein is a Harvard Medical School graduate, a mother to two sons, and a practicing physician, who became an environmental-health activist and organizer in the late 1990s. As the Green Party’s 2012 presidential candidate, Stein holds the record for the most votes ever received by a female candidate for president in a general election.

While third party Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson has received quite a bit of media attention throughout this election, Stein says she has experienced a virtual media blackout. She also says that the reason for the media blackout is that, unlike Johnson, she is an effective messenger against Washington’s corporate-controlled “uni-party.”

She has previously argued that the reason “corporate media prop up Hillary and smear her opponents” is “because they’re huge donors to [Clinton’s] foundation.”

Stein, who has urged her supporters to help her “#BreakTheBlackout from corporate media,” has put members of corporate media, who have failed to cover her own “people-powered campaign,” on notice, declaring, “Your silence to our voices speaks volumes.”
